Table top CDJ, what the jog wheel is for, part 1

Lesson Beginner Stage 3: Beatmatching November 2007

Contents of the video

Alright folks, in this video we're going to be looking at this little dial here. Now these are on 99.9% of tabletop CDJs. Now then, they do a couple of things but most importantly what they will do on virtually every single tabletop CD player is that they will increase the speed and decrease the speed. Now what I mean by that is simply this. When you've got your finger on the dial and you move it forwards... And you turn this clockwise, you will hear the music go faster. But as soon as you take your hand off, it will go back to its original speed. I'll give you a demo. OK, there you go. And likewise applies if you slow it down. Alright, there's a very quick demo on what this does. It's the jog wheel on a tabletop CD player. Thank you for watching. There's more to follow after this. Practice and enjoy.
